The attached Revised Proposal Plans have included additional RLs for the building and notated the existing natural
ground and proposed finished ground level for the building. The proposed building does not remove large portions of
the existing embankment. A cut of the edge of the embankment is necessary to assist in achieving the required
finished surface levels for the overall development site. Please refer to Figure 3 image of the embankment noting the
black marker in ground is approximate line of retaining wall. Figure 4 image depicts the approved landscape which is
positioned on the Holts Road side of the embankment below the canopy of the existing trees along the fence line. This
are will not be disturbed and tree clearances will be established during construction.


The building design has been amended so as to ensure no part of the building, particularly at the north-eastern aspect
of the site is greater than 10m from ground level as was previously proposed. Figure 1 below depicts the original north
elevation of the site, Figure 2, conversely depicts the revised design outcome. As evident the levels are clearly defined
and overall heights are less than 10m.

As per pictures below the existing embankment exhibits small landscape clumping’s of Callistemon and Lomandra
which have not been maintained and growth has been hindered. Thus the proposal has adopted a considerable
portion of new landscape to the base of the building along the northern boundary where the embankment is at its
highest point. This will assist in buffering the lower portion of the proposed development. Additionally, the existing
